| Administrative / biographical background: |
The Ministry of Technology's Electrical, Chemical and Materials Division appears to have originated about 1964. It went through minor changes up to 1970, when as the Electrical Engineering Chemical (Process Plant) and Shipbuilding Industries Division it was transferred to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). The divisional name was changed to Shipbuilding and Process Plant Division in early 1971 and to Shipbuilding Policy Division later that year. From 1974, the division was part of the Department of Industry, becoming part of the DTI again in 1984. Further reorganisation resulted in the division being renamed Shipbuilding and Electrical Engineering (SEE) Division in 1986 and Engineering Markets (EM) Division in 1988. |
